2.6 Setup Guidelines for Interference-Proof Installation
An automation system must be shielded to prevent interference.
When a system is poorly groundet or not shielded, low-frequency and high-frequency interference signals can penetrate the internal bus of the PLC andcause malfunctions.
Interference signals can also be caused when relays or contactors switch(very rapid changes in current or voltage; high-frequency interference si-gnals) or when two parts of a system have different grounding potentials(low-frequency signals).
Use only shielded cables for all signal connections.
Ground the shields of cables on two sides for
– cables to the PLC,
– bus cables,
– cables to I/O devices.
The standard cables specified in the ST80.1 catalog meet these require-ments.
Screw down or lock all plug connections.
Do not install signal lines parallel to power lines. Use a separate cableduct located at least 50 cm from power lines.
Install devices which could bring in interference signals from the outside atthe bottom of the cabinet. Place the grounding rail directly at the cabinet en-trance so that cables which could be carrying interference signals can be ap-plied directly to grounding potential. Apply all shielded lines with the shieldhere. Apply only the outer shield of double-shielded signal lines here.
Install long signal lines along the cabinet walls. Setting up the cabinet in ac-cordance with EMC guidelines is an important factor in the reduction of in-terference. All grounding connections in the cabinet must have large cablecross sections and be applied over a large surface.
Insulate analog devices in the switching cabinet and ground them to a singlepoint in the cabinet using copper tape.
Always use equivalent metals for the materials. Never use aluminum (dangerof oxidation).
Connect all doors and metal parts (sides, back and cover) of the cabinet atleast three times to the cabinet frame (short, paint-free, large-area connec-tions).

2.10 C7 Clocks
The C7 systems have two clocks:
One clock in the C7 CPU
One clock in the C7 OP section
The clock in the C7 CPU is an integral “real-time clock” (hardware clock).This clock is independent of the clock of the MMI section of the C7 OP.
The clock is supplied with the following value set:DT#1994-01-01-00:00:00.
As an integrated clock, the C7 CPU clock can also function as the masterclock within the C7 I/O configuration (see also Section 3.4.6 in Volume 2).
You can set and read the clock in the following ways:
With the programming device (PG) using the STEP 7 tool S7 Info
or
In the user program with SFC0 “SET_CLK”. With SFC1 “READ_CLK”,you can read the current time of day (see the reference manual /235/).
There are two situations influencing the clock response to POWER OFF:
If the C7 has a backup battery, the clocks of the C7 continue to run atPOWER OFF.
If the C7 has no battery backup, clocks of the C7 continue at POWER ONwith the time shown at POWER OFF. Since the C7 is not backed up, theclock will also not continue after POWER OFF.
The clock in the C7 OP section is independent of the clock in the C7 CPU.
The clock is supplied with the following value set:01.01.94 -00:00.
The clock time:
Can be set during configuration (for example, it is loaded from C7 CPUdata)
Can be read on-line by operator input if the special display “Clock time/Date” has been configured and selected (see Volume 2, Section 6.7.1).

2.11 Starting Up a C7
The C7 must be switched off. Proceed as follows when clearing the C7 OPsection:
Press and hold the keys
simultaneously
Switch on the power supply to the C7.
The C7 OP section is now cleared, that is, the C7 OP has been reinitializedand the entire configuration has been deleted.
Clearing the C7 CPU means reinitializing the C7 CPU, deleting the currentcontrol program and reloading any user program located in the flash memoryof the C7 CPU.
There are two methods of clearing the C7 CPU:
Clearing with the C7 system function “Operating modes” of the C7
Clearing with the PG function (see programming device manual)
Clearing with the PG function is only possible when the C7 CPU is at STOP
The following is a description of how to clear the C7 CPU using the systemfunction “C7 CPU Control modes”:

4. Select the MRES (memory reset or clear) function and wait until theSTOP LED lights up again (approximately 3 seconds).
Result: The STOP indicator goes out and then lights up again afterapproximately 3 seconds.
5. Immediately after the STOP indicator lights up again: Select STOP withthe relevant function keys and then initiate MRES again.
Result:
– If the STOP indicator blinks for approximately 3 seconds and thenlights up again: everything is OK; the C7 CPU has been cleared.
– If the STOP indicator of the C7 does not blink or other indicators lightup or blink (exception: BAF indicator): repeat steps 4 and 5; if neces-sary, evaluate the diagnostics buffer of the C7 using the programmingdevice.
– If the BAF and SF indicators on the C7 light up, the backup battery ismissing. If a battery is nevertheless inserted, you must look for addi-tional error entries in the diagnostics buffer of the C7.
6. After a memory reset, you must explicitly set the C7 CPU to STOP orRUN/RUNP since the C7 CPU is still set to MRES.

3.1 Communication Over the MPI
The interface of the C7 for connecting, for example, programming devices, iscalled multipoint interface since several devices can communicate with theC7 over this interface (that is, communication can take place from severalpoints).
The baud rate of the C7 is permanently set to 187.5 kbps
You can connect the following devices to the MPI:
Programming devices (PGs/PCs)
Operator interface systems (OPs)
S7-300 / M7-300
S7-400 / M7-400
Further C7s
FMs/CPs
Convention: In the following, all devices that you connect in an MPI networkare called nodes. Please note that the C7 occupies two MPI addresses andtherefore consists internally of two nodes.
A segment is a bus line between two terminating resistances. A segment cancontain up to 32 nodes.
You can connect up to 126 (addressable) nodes via the MPI.
You must assign an “MPI address” and a “highest MPI address” to each nodeto enable all nodes connected via the MPI to communicate with each other.
Note
The RS 485 repeater has no “MPI address”.

Please observe the following rules before assigning MPI addresses:
All MPI addresses in an MPI network must be different
The highest possible MPI address must be > the largest actual MPI ad-dress and must be the same for all nodes. (Exception: Connecting a pro-gramming device to several nodes; see Chapter 4).
CPs and FMs (as customized modules or in expansion racks) with their ownMPI address have the following special feature: Their MPI address is deter-mined automatically by the C7 and assigned in accordance with the follow-ing system:
MPI-C7 address(1 for C7-OP 2 for C7-CPU)
MPI addr.C7-CPU+1
MPI addr.C7-CPU+2
C7 CP CPIM361
Figure 3-1 Automatic Assignment of MPI Addresses for CPs and FMs
A C7 CPU can communicate with up to four C7 CPUs or S7-300 CPUs. Theycan exchange global data.Please refer to /231/ for detailed information on global data.
Sending and receiving of global data is organized in GD circuits. Each C7CPU may participate in up to four different GD circuits.

3.2 Rules for Configuring an MPI Network
In this section you will be shown
how to configure an MPI network
which rules you must observe.
You must observe the following rules when connecting the nodes of an MPInetwork:
Before you interconnect the individual nodes of the MPI network, youmust assign the MPI address and the highest MPI address to each node(with the exception of the RS 485 repeater).
Tip: Mark all nodes in an MPI network with the MPI address on theirhousings. In this way, you can always see which node has been assignedwhich MPI address in your system.
Connect all nodes in the MPI network as shown in Figure 3-5; that is,integrate the stationary programming devices and OPs direct in the MPInetwork.
Connect only those programming devices/OPs that are required forstartup or maintenance via spur lines to the MPI network.
If you are operating more than 32 nodes in a network, you must link thebus segments via RS 485 repeaters.
Ungrounded bus segments and grounded bus segments are connected viaRS 485 repeaters.
Each RS 485 repeater used reduces the maximum number of nodes perbus segment. This means, if there is an RS 485 repeater in a bus segment,there can then only be a maximum of 31 further nodes in the bus segment.The number of RS 485 repeaters has no effect on the maximum numberof nodes on the bus.
There can be up to 10 segments in one row.
Switch the terminating resistance on at the geographical end point of theMPI network (see Section 3.3).
Before you insert a new node into the MPI network, you must switch offits supply voltage.

Rules

3-5C7–623, C7–624 Control SystemsC79000-G7076-C623-01
The MPI addresses set at the factory should not be assigned as fixed nodeaddresses since, otherwise, address conflicts (double MPI addresses) canarise when devices are replaced or the network is expanded.
Reserve the MPI address “0” for a service PG
Reserve the address “1” for the C7 OP
Reserve the address “2” for the C7 CPU
This avoids double assignment of MPI addresses after installing a furtherpreset C7 or S7-300 in the MPI network (for example, when replacing a C7).
You connect the individual nodes via the bus connectors and the PROFIBUSbus cable. Remember to provide for the nodes a bus connector with PGsocket to which a PG can be connected if required (see also Section 3.5).
Use the RS 485 repeater for connections between segments or for extendingcables.
See the reference manual /71/ for details of how to install and use a repeater.
A cable must be terminated with a surge impedance. For this purpose, switchon the terminating resistance at the first and last node of the network.
At least one of these two nodes must be supplied with power.

3.3 Cable Lengths
You can implement cable lengths up to 50 m in a segment of an MPI net-work. The 50 m applies from the 1st node to the last node of the segment.
If you implement longer cable lengths than those permissible in one segment,you must use RS 485 repeaters. The possible maximum lengths between twoRS 485 repeaters correspond to the cable length of a segment. However,when using these maximum cable lengths, please note that there must be noother node (remote segment) between the two RS 485 repeaters. You canconnect up to nine RS 485 repeaters in series.
When calculating the total number of nodes to be connected, please note thatan RS 485 repeater counts as a node of the MPI network, even if it has notbeen assigned its own MPI number.
Figure 3-6 illustrates the principle of “cable extension” with RS 485 repeat-ers for the MPI.

3.5.3 Plugging the Bus Connector into the Module
Proceed as follows to connect the bus connector:
1. Plug the bus connector into the module.
2. Screw the bus connector to the module.
3. If the bus connector (Order No. 6ES7 ...) is at the start or end of a seg-ment, you must switch on the terminating resistance (switch position“ON”) (see Figure 3-13).
Please ensure that the stations with the terminating resistance are always sup-plied with power during power up and during operation.

You can remove the bus connector with looped-through bus cable from thePROFIBUS-DP interface at any time without interrupting data traffic on thebus.
!Warning
Possibility of interrupting data traffic on the bus!
A bus segment must always be terminated at both ends by the terminatingresistance. This is not the case if the last slave with bus connector is not sup-plied with power. Since the bus connector draws its power from the node, theterminating resistance is ineffective.
Please ensure that the stations in which the terminating resistance isswitched in, are always supplied with power.

4.2 Connecting a Programming Device/PC to Several Nodes
This chapter shows you how to connect a programming device or PC to sev-eral networked nodes via the MPI:
When you connect a programming device/PC to several nodes, you must dif-ferentiate between two installation variants:
Fixed installation of the programming device/PC in the MPI network
Programming device/PC connected for startup and maintenance purposes.
Depending on this, you connect the programming device/PC with the othernodes as follows (see also Section 3.2).
Installation Variant Connection
Fixed installation of the program-ming device/PC in the MPI network
The programming device/PC islinked direct into the MPI network

6.2 Connecting Transducers to Analog Inputs
You can connect various types of transducers to the analog inputs:
Voltage transducers
Current transducers as 4-wire transducers
This section tells you how to connect up your transducers and what precau-tions you have to take when doing so.
To reduce electrical interference, you should use twisted-pair shielded cablesfor the analog signals. The shield of the analog signal cables should begrounded at both cable ends. If there are potential differences between thecable ends, an equipotential bonding current can flow over the shield. Thiscan interfere with the analog signals. In such a case, you should ground theshield at one end of the cable only.
The analog input is isolated and so there is no electrical connection betweenthe reference point of the measuring circuit MANA and the M terminal of theC7 power supply (see Figure 6-1).
A potential difference UISO can occur between the reference point of themeasuring circuit MANA and the M terminal of the C7. Make sure that UISOdoes not exceed the permissible value. Where it is possible that the permissi-ble value might be exceeded (see technical specifications), establish a con-nection between the MANA terminal and the M terminal of the C7.
A potential difference UCM (common mode voltage) may occur between themeasuring line AIx-M of the input channels and the reference point of themeasuring circuit MANA. However, this potential difference must not exceedthe permissible value. Where it is possible that the permissible value for UCMmight be exceeded, or where you cannot determine the difference in potentialaccurately, you must connect AIx-M to MANA. Please observe this also forthe unused inputs.

The abbreviations used in Figures 6-1 to 6-3 have the following meanings:
AIx-X: Measuring line AIx-U or AIx-I
AIx-M: Reference potential of the measuring line
MANA: Reference potential of the analog measuring circuit
M: Ground terminal of the C7
UCM: Potential difference between inputs and MANA
UISO: Potential difference between MANA and the M terminal of the C7
The isolated transducers are not connected with the local ground potential.They can be operated free of potential. Local conditions or interference cancause potential differences UCM (static or dynamic) to occur between themeasuring lines M of the input channels and the reference point of the mea-suring circuit MANA. However, this potential difference must not exceed thepermissible value. Where it is possible that the permissible value for UCMmight be exceeded, or where you cannot determine the difference in potentialaccurately, you must connect AIx-M to MANA.

The non-isolated transducers are connected on-site with the ground potential.Depending on local conditions or interference, potential differences (static ordynamic) can occur between the locally distributed measuring points. To pre-vent these potential differences, you must provide equipotential bonding con-ductors between the measured value points.
In addition, potential differences UCM (static or dynamic) can arise betweenthe measuring lines AIx-M of the input channels and the reference point ofthe measuring circuit MANA. However, these potential differences must notexceed the permitted value. Where it is possible that the permissible valuefor UCM might be exceeded, or where you cannot determine the difference inpotential accurately, you must connect AIx-M to MANA.

6.3 Connecting Loads/Actuators to the Analog Output
You can provide loads/actuators with current or voltage using the analog out-put.
To reduce electrical interference, you should use twisted-pair shielded cablesfor the analog signals. The shield of the analog signal cables should begrounded at both cable ends. If there are potential differences between thecable ends, an equipotential bonding current can flow over the shield. Thiscan interfere with the analog signals. In such a case, you should ground theshield at one end of the cable only.
The analog output is isolated and so there is no electrical connection betweenthe reference point of the AO-M analog circuit and the M terminal of the C7.
A potential difference UISO can occur between the reference point of the ana-log circuit MANA and the M terminal of the C7. Make sure that UISO does notexceed the permissible value. Where it is possible that the permissible valuemight be exceeded (see technical specifications, establish a connection be-tween the AO-M terminal and the M terminal of the C7.
The abbreviations and mnemonics in the Figures 6-5 to 6-6 have the follow-ing meanings:
AO-I: Analog output: current
AO-U: Analog output: voltage
RL: Load/actuator
AO-M : Ground terminal (reference potential of the analog output)
L+: Terminal for 24 VDC supply voltage
MISO: Potential difference between MANA and the M terminal of the C7.

The universal inputs are set per software. This is done using the “S7 Configu-ration” tool. You use this tool to determine which function the individual in-put is to execute (see Table 7-1).
If this function is set, the input responds like a normal interrupt input, that is,a process interrupt is triggered in the C7 CPU as a response to the parameter-ized edge.
If this function is set, the input responds like a normal digital input (see Sec-tion 5.2). The only difference here is that the current process signal is notautomatically fed to the control program but must first be read in from theI/O.
These universal inputs enable you to capture counter pulses up to a frequencyof 10 kHz. The counter can count either up or down.
This enables you to count pulses within a programmed length of time. Fromthis you can calculate a frequency 10 kHz.
This function enables you to count fixed timer ticks between two equaledges. From this you can calculate the duration of an interval period.

8.1 Changing and Disposing of the Backup Battery
You must always change the backup battery during POWER ON. This pre-vents any data loss in the internal user memory during battery change.
Note
The data in the internal user memory will be lost if you change the batteryduring POWER OFF!
Change the battery during POWER ON only!
Proceed as follows to change the backup battery:
Step Action
1. Unscrew the cover of the C7 battery compartment (see Figure 8-1).
2. Lift the cover up and to the right (see Figure 8-2). Make sure you raise thecover only as far as the battery connections allow.
3. Remove the battery connector of the old backup battery.
4. Loosen the cable binders with which the backup battery is attached to thecover (see Figure 8-3).
5. Attach the new backup battery with the cable binders to the cover.
6. Plug the battery connector of the new backup battery into the relevant socketin the battery compartment of the C7. The notch on the battery connectormust point to the left (see Figure 8-3).
7. Close the battery cover with the springs to the left onto the C7 and screw thecover tight again.
Note
Do not touch any interior components of the C7 with your hands or a metalpart (screwdriver). Electrical components and PCB are not sufficiently pro-tected for this purpose. Please observe ESD guidelines.

B.1 What is ESD?
All electronic modules are equipped with large-scale integrated ICs or com-ponents. Due to their design, these electronic elements are very sensitive toovervoltages and thus to any electrostatic discharge.
These Electrostatic Sensitive Devices are commonly referred to by the ab-breviation ESD.
Electrostatic sensitive devices are labelled with the following symbol:
!Caution
Electrostatic sensitive devices are subject to voltages that are far below thevoltage values that can still be perceived by human beings. These voltagesare present if you touch a component or module without previously beingelectrostatically discharged. In most cases, the damage caused by an over-voltage is not immediately noticeable and results in total damage only after aprolonged period of operation.

B.2 Electrostatic Charging of Objects and Persons
Every object with no conductive connection to the electrical potential of itssurroundings can be charged electrostatically. In this way, voltages up to15 000 V can build up whereas minor charges, i.e. up to 100 V, are not rele-vant.
Examples:
Plastic covers up to 5 000 V
Plastic cups up to 5 000 V
Plastic-bound books and notebooks up to 8 000 V
Desoldering device with plastic parts up to 8 000 V
Walking on plastic flooring up to 12 000 V
Sitting on a padded chair up to 15 000 V
Walking on a carpet (synthetic) up to 15 000 V
An electrostatic discharge is
perceptible from 3500 V
audible from 4500 V
visible from 5000 V
A fraction of these voltages is capable of destroying or damaging electronicdevices.
Carefully note and apply the protective measures described below to protectand prolong the life of your modules and components.

B.3 General Protective Measures Against Electrostatic DischargeDamage
Keep plastics away from sensitive devices. Most plastic materials have a ten-dency to build up electrostatic charges easily.
Make sure that the personnel, working surfaces and packaging are suffi-ciently grounded when handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
If possible, avoid any contact with electrostatic sensitive devices. Hold mod-ules without touching the pins of components or printed conductors. In thisway, the discharged energy cannot affect the sensitive devices.
Note the following measures that have to be taken for modules that are notprotected against accidental contact:
Touch electrostatic sensitive devices only
– if you wear a wristband complying with ESD specifications or
– if you use special ESD footwear or ground straps when walking on anESD floor.
Persons working on electronic devices should first discharge their bodiesby touching grounded metallic parts (e.g. bare metal parts of switchgearcabinets, water pipes, etc.).
Protect the modules against contact with chargeable and highly insulatingmaterials, such as plastic foils, insulating table tops or clothes made ofplastic fibres.
Place electrostatic sensitive devices only on conductive surfaces:
– Tables with ESD surface
– Conductive ESD foam plastic (ESD foam plastic is mostly colouredblack)
– ESD bags
Avoid direct contact of electrostatic sensitive devices with visual displayunits, monitors or TV sets (minimum distance to screen > 10 cm).

B.4 Taking Measurements and Working on ESD Modules
Measurements may be taken on electrostatic sensitive devices only if
the measuring device is grounded (e.g. via protective conductor) or
the tip of the isolated measuring device has previously been discharged(e.g. by briefly touching grounded metal parts).
B.5 Packing Electrostatic Sensitive Devices
Generally use conductive materials for packing modules without casing andcomponents. You may also use metal-clad plastics boxes or metal cans. Al-ways store ESD modules in conductive packing material.
When packing modules incorporating batteries, cover the battery connectionswith insulating tape or insulating material to avoid short-circuiting of thebattery. Remove the battery, if possible.

The C7 OP handles the OP functions of the C7. It is independent of the
C7 CPU and continues to operate if, for example, the C7 CPU goes to theSTOP mode. The C7 OP has its own MPI address and is connected to the C7CPU via the MPI.
Chassis ground is the totality of all connected inactive parts of an operatingresource that cannot carry a hazardous touch voltage even in the event of afault.
Communications processors are modules for point-to-point links and for buslinks.
When a C7 CPU is restarted (for example, after selection of one of the C7CPU Operating Modes in the System Functions menu or on switching themains power ON), the organization block OB 100 (complete restart) isexecuted before cyclic program execution (OB1). At complete restart, theprocess image of the inputs is read in and the STEP 7 user program isexecuted starting at the first instruction in OB1.
Assignment of modules to mounting racks/slots and addresses (in the case ofsignal modules, for example).
The configuration memory is a flash memory containing the configurationdata and integrated in the C7 OP.
Communications processors (CPs) are intelligent modules with their ownprocessor. They form an important group within the components of a pro-grammable controller. We differentiate between various types of communica-tions processors according to their tasks, for example, CPs for signaling andlisting, for point-to-point connection, for the operator interface (COROS), forbus connections (SINEC) and for diagnostics and mass storage applications.

An FM (function module) is a module that offloads the CPU of the S7-300and S7-400 programmable controllers of time-critical or memory-intensiveprocess signal handling tasks. FMs generally use the internal bus for high-speed data exchange with the CPU. Examples of FM applications includecounting, positioning, closed-loop control.
Grounding with the sole purpose of ensuring the intended purpose of theelectrical resources. Function grounding has the effect of short-circuiting in-terference voltages that would otherwise have impermissible influence on theresources.
G
Conductive ground whose electrical potential at every point can be taken aszero.
In the area of grounding electrodes, ground can have a potential different tozero. This is frequently referred to as “reference ground”.
To connect an electrically conductive part with the grounding electrode (oneor more conductive parts that have very good contact to ground) via agrounding point.
I
The STEP 7 info functions offer you the possibility of displaying status in-formation on the programming device via the connected C7 during the differ-ent phases of startup and during operation of a programmable controller.
MPI
The operating system of the C7 CPU recognizes 10 different priorityclasses governing execution of the user program. Interrupts such as processinterrupts belong to these priority classes. When an interrupt occurs, the op-erating system automatically calls an assigned organization block in whichthe user can program the desired response (for example, in an FB).
In isolated input/output modules, the reference potentials of the control cir-cuit and the load circuit are galvanically isolated by, for example, optocoup-lers, relay contactors or transformers. Input/output circuits can be connectedto common potential.

L
The load memory is a component part of the C7 CPU. It contains objects(load objects) created by the programming device. It is implemented as afixed integrated memory.
M
When clearing the C7 CPU, the following memories are deleted:
The work memory
The read/write memory area of the load memory
The system memory
The backup memory
and the user program is reloaded from the flash memory.
When clearing the C7 OP, the following memories are deleted:
The work memory
The configuration memory
The C7 OP then does not contain a user configuration.
The multipoint interface (MPI) is the programming device port of SIMATICS7. It enables simultaneous operation of several nodes (programming de-vices, text displays, operator panels) on one or several CPUs. The nodes onthe MPI are connected to each other via a network. Each node is identifiedby a unique address (MPI address).
A network is a connection of several C7s and/or S7-300s and further termi-nals, such as a programming device, over a connecting cable. Data areexchanged between the connected devices over the network.

N
The node number represents the “access address” of a C7 CPU, C7 OP or aprogramming or other intelligent I/O module when it communicates withother nodes over an MPI network. The node number is assigned to the C7CPU, C7 OP and programming.
In non-isolated input/output modules, the reference potentials of the controlcircuit and the load circuit are electrically connected.
O
The operating system of the C7 CPU organizes all functions and sequences ofthe C7 CPU that are not connected with a special control task.
P
1. Variable of a STEP 7 code block2. Variable for setting the behavior of a module (one or more per module).Each module is supplied from the factory with a meaningful basic setting thatcan be modified using the STEP 7 tool S7 Configuration.There are static parameters and dynamic parameters.
Parameterization refers to the setting of the behavior of a module.
In contrast to static parameters, dynamic module parameters can be modifiedduring operation by calling an SFC in the user program, for example, limitvalues of an analog signal input module.
In contrast to dynamic parameters, static module parameters cannot be modi-fied via the user program. They can only be modified via the software tool S7Configuration, for example input delay of a digital signal input module.

The signal states of the digital inputs and outputs are stored in the C7 CPU ina process image. We differentiate between the process-image input table (PII)and the process-image output table (PIQ).
The process-image input table is read by the input modules before executionof the user program.
The process-image output table is transferred to the output modules by theoperating system at the end of the user program.
A process interrupt is triggered by interrupt-triggering modules as the resultof certain events in the process. The process interrupt is signaled to the C7CPU. Depending on the priority of the interrupt, the corresponding organiza-tion block is then executed.
An automation system of the SIMATIC S7 range.
Programmable controllers (PLCs) are electronic controllers whose function isstored as a program in the CPU. The design and wiring of these devicestherefore does not depend on the controller function. The programmable con-troller has the structure of a computer; it consists of a CPU with memory,inputs and outputs and an internal bus system. The I/O and the programminglanguage are designed specifically for the requirements of control engineer-ing.
Programming devices are essentially personal computers that are compactand portable and suitable for use in industry. They are characterized by beingequipped with special hardware and software for SIMATIC programmablecontrollers.
R
Random access memory is a read/write memory in which each memory cellcan be addressed individually and can be changed. RAM memories are usedas data memories and program memories

S
Signal modules (C7 I/O) form the interface between the process and the C7.There are digital input and output modules and analog input and output mod-ules.
Programming software for creating user programs for SIMATIC S7 program-mable controllers.
A STEP 7 tool is a tool of STEP 7 tailored to a specific task.
Substitute values are values that are output to the process or used in the userprogram in place of a process value in the event of a fault occurring in signalmodules. The substitute values can be specified by the user (for example,keep old value).
System diagnostics includes the detection, evaluation and signaling of faultsoccurring within the programmable controller. Examples of such faults in-clude program errors or module failures. System faults can be displayed viaLEDs or using the S7 Information tool.
The system memory is integrated on the CPU and implemented in the formof a RAM. The address areas (for example, timers, counters, memory bits)and the data areas required internally by the operating system (for example,buffers for communications) are stored in the system memory.
T
The time-delay interrupt belongs to one of the priority classes in programexecution on the C7 CPU. It is generated after expiry of a time started in theuser program. The relevant organization block is then executed.
A timed interrupt is generated periodically by the C7 CPU according to aparameterizable time grid. It triggers execution of the relevant organizationblock.
The time-of-day interrupt belongs to one of the priority classes in programexecution on the C7 CPU. It is generated dependent on a specific date (ordaily) and time (for example, 9:50 or hourly, by the minute). The relevantorganization block is then executed.

The user memory contains the code and data blocks of the user program. Theuser memory is integrated into the C7 CPU as a flash memory. However, theuser program is executed in the work memory of the C7 CPU.
The user program contains all the statements and declarations as well as datafor signal processing by which a plant or process can be controlled. It is as-signed to a programmable module (for example, C7 CPU, FM) and can bestructured in smaller units (blocks).
